Dead Sea Facts

Benefits of the Dead Sea

1300 feet below sea level, deep in the Jordan Valley, lies the Dead Sea - the lowest point on earth. It is entirely devoid of life as it has 32% salinity, the highest salt content of all the seas' waters.

Formed 3 million years ago when a fracture occurred, for thousand of years fresh water carrying its own natural salts drifted through the rocks, sand and soil, flowing south through the Jordan river valley into the Dead Sea. The Dead Sea is a giant reservoir of minerals, natural salts and mud.
